Nashville vs Minnesota Prediction: don’t underestimate the Wild team

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on January 19. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Nashville

Nashville can not boast of its stability. First the team on a confident beat Vancouver and Calgary, then loses to Winnipeg and Washington, and after beating Vegas and Chicago. With this pattern, the next two meetings the Predators will lose. However, this stretch can be called successful, given the status of the team in the West. Andrew Brunette's team is content with the 14th place in the standings and has 12 points less in the piggy bank than the cup zone-closing Calgary. 

Minnesota

Kaprizov is in the infirmary while Minnesota is failing miserably. At first, the Wild did well without the Russian forward, but they won their last four games only once, and that was against San Jose. With Colorado, Vegas and Edmonton they could not compete. Thus, Minnesota has slipped to fourth place in the Western Conference standings and has 58 points, seven less than first-place Winnipeg.

H2H Meetings

In 2025, the opponents have already held one meeting between them. Then, in front of their own stands, Minnesota was the stronger team with a score of 5:3. Two games earlier, the Wild were also winning, but things didn't go to overtime.

Expert Betting Tips

Analysts at bookmakers believe that Nashville will line up alongside Colorado, Winnipeg and Edmonton, who were able to take advantage of Kaprizov's absence, but we don't believe it. This season, the Predators are performing at the level of an average mid-tier team and no more, while the Wild were fighting for leadership and even held that title. That's why we expect a successful performance from John Hynes' wards. We offer to bet on them not losing for excellent odds.
